Forum for Safe Rodent Control in New England

Description

In recent years, shocking numbers of raptors, foxes, coyotes, and other predators have been sickened or killed after preying on rodents poisoned with rodenticides. We need all public and private property owners and managers to take a non-poison integrated pest management approach to removing rodents to keep our wildlife safe.

Mass Audubon, NH Audubon, and Audubon Society of Rhode Island are all actively advocating to reduce these poisons and encourage municipalities to change to a non-poison Integrated Pest Management approach.

Hear the successes and challenges of this methods from New England's leading poison-free pest control professionals that have their boots on the ground. Learn about their proven, wildlife-safe pest control approaches and then use this new knowledge to advocate for an end to rodent poison use in your community.
